Do you feel like you are spending a lot of time and not making much progress? That's okay! Sometimes it takes "stumbling around" to discover what you didn't know you wanted/needed to know. Read Jamie McKenzie's //Stumbling Toward Insight// for permission to "play." @http://fno.org/summer2011/stumbling.html
